Really first class service and provided me with some vital information I needed at a really fast speed. Excellent communication with me and a personal service too. 
Louise, 4 July 
Gobsmacked. I couldnt divorce and re-marry without tons of hassle due to a missing ex. I spent over a decade searching. Within just a few hours I learned the (sad) news he had passed away years ago. Whilst this was of course quite a shock, CCS saved me hundreds of pounds and resolved my enquiry. Sad story but due to CCS - a happy ending. 
Charlie, 9 March 
Top notch service. Traced a witness and had the results back to me on the same day. I will definitely be using CCS in the future!
